Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an adhesive film based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
  • PVC polyvinyl chloride
  • the present invention relates to a PVC adhesive film for producing graphics.
  • the invention also relates to a method of applying a graphic to a substrate such as a building or a vehicle using a PVC based adhesive film.
  • PVC based adhesive films have been widely used in producing graphics or decorations on substrates.
  • adhesive films are used to provide advertisement, logos or company names and information on vehicles such as vans, busses, trains, trams etc. They may also be used on buildings.
  • the adhesive film will have to remain in place for an extended period of time up to several years. Accordingly, the graphics produced with the film are exposed to a large variety of weather conditions. Particularly in so called horizontal applications, where the film is applied over a generally horizontal surface such as on the hood of a car, the weathering conditions may be particularly severe. Accordingly, the adhesive film needs to have excellent weathering stability and excellent adhesion characteristics to the surface.
  • the graphic film can be removed without damaging the surface of the substrate which frequently may be a painted surface.
  • these graphics may be of a significant size.
  • Application of a large image graphic film to substrates encounters the problem of entrapped air between the film and the substrate.
  • Teen who has ever attempted to hang wallpaper can appreciate the frustration that can arise when entrapped air beneath an adhesive-backed film can not be removed easily.
  • the removal of air bubbles is labor intensive.
  • the art has provided multiple solutions to this problem by providing air-bleed channels in the adhesive.
  • EP 951518 discloses the use of channels in the adhesive to allow air bleed during application of the graphic film. In certain instances it has been found that the presence of air bleed channels may become visible on the graphic and disturb the appeal of the graphic. Such may occur shortly after application of the film or develop over an extended period of time.
  • the surface of the substrate may be uneven requiring good conformability of the film.
  • the film when the film is used in personalization of vehicles or in decorating vehicles, the film may need to be applied over recesses such as where the license plate is located, over curved surfaces such as over bumpers and / or other complex contours of the substrate.
  • the adhesive film may lift and pop-up in areas where the surface of the substrate is uneven or has a complex shape. This undesired behavior may become apparent shortly after application or after some time.
  • the PVC adhesive is cut in a plotter, so-called electro cutting whereby the film up to the liner protecting the adhesive is cut with a desired image, for example lettering.
  • the adhesive film is weeded, whereby the undesired parts are removed from the liner, thereby leaving thereon the desired image, for example lettering.
  • the parts removed present the negative of the image remaining on the liner.
  • the image is then applied on the substrate on which the graphic is desired.
  • a variety of graphic films is desired showing a wide range of colors with good vibrancy.
  • special effects films are desired producing a metallic or pearlescent look.
  • the film desirably has good conformability and limited tendency for lifting or popping-up. Desirably the film has good weathering stability.
  • the film should be readily removable after use over an extended period of time without causing damage to the surface of the substrate. Further, the appealing look of the film does not substantially change over time and/or effects of gloss or color change induced by stretching of the film during application over complex substrates should be minimized.
  • the invention provides an adhesive film comprising a colored polyvinyl chloride film having opposite first and second major sides, the first major side having an adhesive layer protected by a release liner and a primer layer arranged between the colored polyvinyl chloride film and the adhesive layer, the primer layer comprising an aminoplast and a polyester and/or a curing product thereof and having a thickness of more than 10 microns, the second major side having a clear transparent top layer.
  • the adhesive film in connection with the present invention is particularly suitable for application on substrates with a complex shape and /or uneven surface.
  • the tendency of the film to lift or pop-up, in particular in areas that have sharp or sudden changes in the evenness of the surface is limited.
  • the adhesive comprises a channel structure, this typically does not lead to visual disturbance of the graphic after application even after a prolonged time.
  • the film also shows good weathering stability and allows producing films of a large variety of vibrant colors as well as films with special effects. Furthermore, generally the films are less prone to "whitening at stress”.
  • the invention also provides a method for using the adhesive film in making a graphic on a substrate.
  • the polyvinyl chloride film is typically a plasticized PVC.
  • the PVC film is colored.
  • the adhesive film has a color other than white or black.
  • the PVC is colored to a color other than white or black and the primer layer contains a white pigment and/or a black pigment.
  • White pigments that may be used include titanium dioxide or zinc oxide. Suitable black pigments include carbon blacks.
  • the use of white pigments in the primer layer may be advantages in particular for light colors and the use of black pigments in the primer layer may be useful for dark colors.

  • Suitable polyesters include in particular those that are typically used in the paint industry for example in powder coatings and include in particular the polyesters available under the URALAC brand from DSM in the Netherlands.
  • the aminoplasts for use in the primer layer are conveniently based on the condensation product of an aldehyde with an amino- or amido-group containing compound. While the aldehyde employed is most often formaldehyde, other aldehydes such as acetaldehyde, crotonaldehyde, acrolein, benzaldehyde, furfural, and glyoxal can also be used.
